Have little girl here who is 18 months. She not walking still. Was late to show interest but for about 2 month now, she will walk if hold finger or hand. She not really taking any balance from hand or finger she holding but if removed, she plop down and not move again without hand or finger given back.
She can do it but refuses. She walk few steps some weeks back but now not interested in doing independently. She slams one foot down hard like elephant and she turn same foot out too. I seen turned foots before and slamming feet down before.
Now she cry if made to walk even holding finger, will not take one step without the support. She heavy girl so I not carry her around and I get to walk every chance but how can I teach her she not need figure and just to to go.
Had late walker before but this is 18 months so very late. We do lot of walking and lot of outside time but I need her to get going. Have new baby coming in September and one child maybe to be replaced soon and don't need 18 month old being highest dependency/taking up the stroller.
Any ideas?
